Hello !
hope someone can help me with this request
I've been given the job of finding a desktop pc for my father with a budget of £300 give or take few quid. (I know, I know)
I've come up with this spec, but its way over the budget .
i was hoping to use the i3 processor as a starting block, futureproof sort of thing
...... Can you help please !
My concerns are ...
is the basic case substantial enough for daily use, wear and tear .... has anyone mentioned any problems with it in the other posts ?
i was thinking the 2x2Gb RAM was a good choice, again for coping with future upgrades , you're thoughts ?
Is the default hard drive a good drive ?
Would the system below have hdmi option for connecting to monitor ?
Would the pc be quiet/ fairly quiet/ noisy ?!
Another daft question... would it be wireless, can I use an ipad or laptop in the same house as this pc using the BT broadband router already installed ?
ANY help would be most grateful .... it is an urgent request, for reasons I can't mention, but I am very grateful
I don't want to go to pc world but I'm running out of time !
Thankyou
